In our conversation we discover…

How to turn your expertise into a successful business. It’s not enough to just have knowledge and passion. You need to know how to execute so that you can be financially successful, too. Ilyce offers her top tips.

The financial habit she and her husband practice with their sons. It’s helped her boys save thousands of dollars for their futures.

Her go to zero strategy that honestly everyone should do immediately after listening to this podcast. I’m doing it. It’s going to dramatically change your budget for the better I think.

I’ve partnered with Joe Saul-Sehy, host of the Stacking Benjamins podcast to host a charity fundraiser/competition the entire month. He and I have each selected a personal charity and our goal is to raise tons of money with your help.

The So Money charity is THON, a dance marathon and the largest student-run philanthropy held at Pennsylvania State University (my alma mater!) that helps raise money and awareness for the fight against pediatric cancer. You can donate here.

The Stacking Benjamins charity is Texas 4000, a 4,000 mile bike ride that University of Texas students take to raise money for cancer research and cancer related causes. You can donate here.

The podcast that receives the MOST money for its charity will win the chance to write the introduction to the other person’s podcast in January (buhahah!)
